Well stated above by TurnerFam.

Here’s my talking points on this question:

#1...my HighPoint Convection Microwave oven is on a separate circuit. And I want to leave it that way. It’s 1500 watts on Convection, 1150 watts Grill, or 1000 watts on Microwave only. So currently, I am unable to use this appliance unless I’m on Shore Power or Genny

#2...there are already other items connected to my “standard outlet/receptacle” circuit, which is what my AIMs Inverter is connected to. Including the Refrigerator. So I always need to be aware of that, and can always move it to propane if I need all 1200 watts (2000 watts starting power) for a plug-in appliance

#3...if you have the lights or TV/DVD on you are already using house battery power. So need to be aware of that or the house batteries may not provide enough amps
